Deleting Apps
You can delete apps you install from the App Store. If you delete an app, data
associated with the app is no longer available to iPhone, unless you reinstall the app
and restore its data from a backup.
You can reinstall an app and restore its data as long as you backed up iPhone with
iTunes on your computer. (If you try to delete an app that hasn’t been backed up to
your computer, an alert appears.) To retrieve the app data, you must restore iPhone
from a backup containing the data. See “Restoring from a Backup” on page 257.
Delete an App Store app:
1 Touch and hold any app icon on the Home screen, until the icons start to jiggle.
2 Tap in the corner of the app you want to delete.
3 Tap Delete, then press the Home button.

App Store or deleting apps has been restricted. See “Restrictions” on page 196 .

interface, but it isn’t erased from iPhone. For information about erasing all content and
settings, see “Erase All Content and Settings” on page 201.
